Things you WISH you could brag about, but you know no one cares about.

[SilkySkyKitten]

In order to complete a problem in a Statistics class that involved simulating a game of Craps, I wrote a program for a TI-83 graphing calculator that basically could simulate a game up to 25 rolls (which would be nigh on impossible to reach anyway, thus the limit wasn't a problem). I could have taken the easy route and just used some mathematical equations that were provided, but fuck that shit. I learned a whole new programming language and wrote up a program on a calculator JUST for one activity.

Go me.

 

[YingDerpington]

Made a snowball the size of a VW bug at 3am and put it right in the way of my university's primary pedestrian area, which meant they had to reroute everyonefor a couple days while it melted.



This list cold go on forever.

Oh such a clever, clever pun dear sir!

OT: I had girls asking me out in the earlier years of high school simply because my voice sounded like puberty hit my voice like a truck... That proceeded to reverse back over me and drive into me for a second time... Nobody ever cares though because they're too busy abusing me for saying no to a girl...

 

[Hexenwolf]

I can twist what I say
Easily into Haikus
You wish you were me

Your first line has six syllables <.<

 

[WaReloaded]

I wish I could brag about how much I procrastinate, or how many games in my Steam library I haven't actually played.

The picture he's pointing to is a doodle he did of me, Mr. Boyfriend, and the boyfriend's two friends.

Spoiler: Rana McAnear

Spoiler: Brentalfloss and Nostalga Chick' s 'ex-boyfriend and roommate' from Channel Awesome

(I feel bad because I don't know the other guy's name)

Spoiler: Matt Hullum of Rooster Teeth

Not pictured are Chris Prestly and Jessica Merizan because I don't have a decent picture of them.

Look at me, I'm name dropping like there's no tomorrow! You know I must be hella important!

Right?

Nah, now I would have cared if you met Bernie, Geoff, Jack, or Joel.

As for me, I'll go with some name dropping as well. I went to high school with Sean and Nick Plott, two of the best Star Craft players in the world (at least they were back in high school...I know that Nick actually does commentary for SC tournaments now). Watching Nick play was absolutely mind-blowing.

Oh, and I beat them both in a FFA on the Three Kingdoms map...but only because I swooped in with a swarm of mutas while they were busy fighting each other. :3

 

[Evil Smurf]

I'm Batman I have a huge penis music library and genetically can't get hungover

Oh such a clever, clever pun dear sir!

Can't earn The Escapist's Mr. Freeze badge and then be expected not to make a few cold puns here and there.

 

[AstylahAthrys]

I have a signed Skyrim map by the core development team and I've been called an literary genius by multiple English professors are the two things that I think are pretty cool about me, but no one else really seems to care.

Spoiler: I guess you can not care about my literary skill, but how could you not be impressed that this was personally hand delievered to my door by GStaff?

I do not proofread
Especially on the web
Please don't judge me so

I made a Forge map

[Angie7F]

I actually find it hard to brag about things that other people will actually envy me about.
It makes me uncomfortable, so I prefer to brag about stupid things like how often I hurt myself, and crazy accidents have been in.

 

[MadMatt910]

I finished alot of the Riddler's riddels in Arkham City.

I'm playing BL2 on solo, which is hard.

Me too, maybe we should make some sort of uber-cool exclusive club

 

[AgentLampshade]

I'm the only one amongst my friends who has any sort of proficiency with Photoshop, making and manipulating artwork into awesome shizz. And they don't care. They never raise the subject, never ask what I've done lately nor what I have in mind for my next project.

 

[Jedamethis]

Sweet, can I join? Halfway through True Vault Hunter mode with Zero all on his lonesome...

OT: I have a really good memory for facts, but nobody believes me because I suck at remembering things like what day it is, or what I had for breakfast that morning.

 

[deathofroland]

Definitely acquainted with the feeling. I play guitar and I write music. Mostly metal. A lot of times, I feel like I've come up with the most world-crushingly awesome riff and I show people and no one gives half a damn. I mean, positive or negative. I've begged for criticism over praise and I can't even get that. Most people I know don't seem to have any particular love for music (or at least heavy music) and almost none of them are musicians. So I dunno if that's the problem or if I'm just awful and no one wants to tell me...?

Anyway, the point is that getting no reaction at all is a huge disappointment and, worse, makes me wonder if I even HAVE bragging rights.

 

[AngloDoom]

I am rather-good at walking, running, and jumping quietly. I found it out when a friend of mine who did freerunning took me on a rooftop climb at night, and we had to be quiet so we we're mistaken for thieves.

It made me feel like a ninja, although I'm pretty sure nobody but me could give anything approaching a shit about the loudness of anyone's steps.

EDIT - I'm also rather-good at putting-hyphens in rather-inappropriate places in-a-sentence, it seems.

 

[MeChaNiZ3D]

I don't know...I SS-ranked Armored Core for Answer and wrote a guide for how to do it. About 1 other person got use out of it. Also, did a 1v4 invasion mission in Armored Core V single-handedly with a tank in Alpine.

 

[SuperSuperSuperGuy]

I pulled off a 80-hit combo in BlazBlue with Lambda-11 last night. I was really proud of myself, but no one else really cared. I could probably extend it further if I incorporate Legacy Edge into it again, but that would mean that I can't finish it with Calamity Sword...

I'm also a stealthy guy. My general dislike of unnecessary noise has caused me to learn how to walk while avoiding making as much sound as possible. It's kind of hard, though, considering how creaky my house's floorboards are.

 

[Vegosiux]

My short-sight vision sharpness is way above average.

I can sneak out of somewhere I don't want to be without anyone noticing.

I can crack puns with the best of them. I mean, I got zerged by veteran giant risen chickens in GW2 the other night, but after some impeccable combat tactics I had no problems dealing with the foul undead fowl.

 

[Brutal Peanut]

I'm good at a lot of domestic things no one seems to care about anymore.

Crocheting blankets and throws.
Cooking and baking (I make my own french bread - it's delicious)
Gardening
Minor home repair
Being thrifty without being considered overly cheap.
I also paint well enough for someone who has never taken any sort of art class.

Not really sure if these are things to brag about, but you know; it's what I have. At least I very much enjoy doing all of these things. lol
